Summer Kind Of Sad

Martin Zellar

The first night that we met

I passed out on your floor

In the morning you were holding me tight

And I knew trouble was in store

Couldn't shake you with my drinking

Couldn't lose you with my lies

Seems that the less that I gave you

The more that I hurt you

The harder you'd try



Didn't know any other way

Love meant that you had to stay

So your daddy was a drinker

Did he pull your chain too tight?

Well I ain't no Freud,

but there's got to be a reason

Why I'm your Mr. Right



Standin' here nothing left to say

Always knew it would end this way

We got that Summer Kind of Sad, Baby

It doomed us from the start



Now I'm drinking like crazy

Tryin' to release the guilt

That's trapped in my heart



You got a quiet way of crying

Your heart holds back too much

You're too quick to forgive

And you're too quick to give out

An it's all right touch

And I know what you're gonna say

True love don't just walk away



We got that Summer Kind of Sad, Baby

It doomed us from the start

Now I'm drinking like crazy

Tryin' to release the guilt

That's trapped in my heart

We got that Summer Kind of Sad

It's gone on way too long

Yeah you can't begin to know

You can never win

Aganst a sadness that strong



Standing here nothing left to say

Always knew ilt would end this way.
